US Patent 7146655 Bariatric toilet seat support apparatus

A bariatric toilet seat support apparatus for a conventional toilet is disclosed herein. The bariatric toilet seat support apparatus is designed to be placed under a toilet seat such that when an individual uses the toilet seat the weight of the individual is transferred from the toilet seat to the support apparatus of the current invention, avoiding distribution of weight to the toilet itself. The bariatric toilet seat support apparatus of the current invention may be used with floor mounted or wall mounted toilets. It is designed to prevent wall mounted toilets from breaking off the wall under the weight of an individual and also to prevent floor mounted toilets from collapsing under the weight of an individual.
